Description

Western Steps at Southport Seaway is a beginner-friendly dive site on the Gold Coast, Queensland. At just 8 meters depth along the western wall of the seaway, this sheltered site offers easy entry via concrete steps and calm conditions on incoming tides. The rock walls are home to wobbegong sharks, octopus, nudibranchs, and various reef fish. Its accessibility and shallow depth make it popular for training dives and night dives when crayfish and crabs emerge.
